The Animals:We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me it ain't no use in trying

My little girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You're gonna die before your time is due

See my daddy in bed and tired
See his hair turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away, I know

'Cause he's been working, yeah
Every day
Saving his life away
He been working, baby
He's been a-working
Work, work, work

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
Mmm yeah

My little girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due, yes you will

See my daddy in bed and tired
See his hair been turning gray
He's been working and slaving his life away
Yes I know

He's been working
He's been working yeah
Whoa
He's been working
Work, work, work

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
Ooh baby

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
Oh, you know it baby, and I know it too babe, ohh yeah
